"How's the weather outside?" We were packed into the elevator like sardines. Myself, Blue Eyes, the bariatric stretcher and two Nurses.
Blue Eyes and I answered simultaneously. He told them that it was beautiful. "Sunny and warm." I told them that it was miserable outside and to be happy that they were stuck indoors on such an awful day. I had been reminded earlier in the shift that anyone stuck indoors doesn't truly want to know what the weather is like outside. Unless it's awful and going to keep them from getting home. It wasn't awful outside. I lied to them.
The male nurse laughed out loud. "You guys enjoy your day."
"You too." Blue Eyes returned. We walked our land yacht of a stretcher through the ambulance bay doors and into a beautiful 70 degree spring day. The kind of day that I wish I could recreate every day of the year. The shift had been uneventful so far. Just how I like it. I don't know where I need to move to have 70 degree weather every single day, but if I can figure that out, I'm moving. I remember looking up and seeing a MICU that had just pulled in, not even bothering to park. It happens when the bay is full.
Or when something is going south in the back of the truck.
The back doors flung open and I heard some yelling, although it was nothing that I was able to make out. A few years back I would have been intensely interested in what was happening in the back at that moment. I remember the first time I saw a crew using a Lucas on an arrest patient. I practically stalked them through the ER, in awe that a machine like that even existed. It's not that I care less about what I do now, far from it. I absolutely love my career choice. I love it to the point of distraction. I guess that since it wasn't happening in the back of my truck, I wasn't focusing on the big picture. Blue Eyes called my name. "Epi! It's a code. Do you want to help???"
My stomach dropped. It hit me. I wanted absolutely nothing to do with that run. They had a full crew on the truck, Security was already at the back doors. They would be fine. If it looked like they weren't okay we could jump in. I've done enough compressions to know that it doesn't often end well.
"Epi? Do you want to help?" Blue Eyes was ready to go. In hindsight, I should have told him to go see what he could help with. He hasn't had any arrests as an EMT, although he's done compressions while on the Fire Department. I should have told him to go. Blue Eyes, if you read this, I'm sorry. I failed you, grasshopper.
By the time I could answer him, the Calvary was emptying out of the ER and heading to the squad. I remember seeing the girl in the front of the truck climb out. She was crying, her face was streaked with makeup and tears, her hair matted… She was doubled over in the middle of the ambulance bay and there wasn't a soul with her. Her hands were covering her mouth and even from twenty feet away I could hear her deep guttural sobs. It's that heartbreaking sound that one makes when they realize that a loved one is dying. Or has already died. I hear the echoes of those cries in my dreams sometimes.
"Blue Eyes, she needs us more." We both jogged over to her along with a bystander that had been watching.
"He's in good hands…"
"If it was going to happen at least it happened here…"
"You need to get on your knees and pray, right now. Right here…"
"It's going to be okay."
Blue Eyes had her by the shoulders and the bystander was there, they were both trying to calm her, to ease her fears, but there really isn't much you can say to someone when they believe that they've just lost the love of their life. When she began to hyperventilate I stepped forward and wrapped my arms around her and whispered, "Stay calm. Slow your breathing down. Breathe in and out slowly. Very good, in through your nose and out through your mouth."
Just as she began to slow her breathing down I realized that they were going to be pulling the stretcher out of the back of the truck right in front of her. She didn't to see someone pumping on her husband's chest. She didn't need to see them forcing air into him through a BVM. There isn't anything glamorous about CPR or working an arrest. Just as they were pulling him out of the back of the truck I turned her 180 degrees. The bystander told her once again that she should pray.
And that's what they did. They got on their knees, on the blacktop in that urban ER ambulance bay. They prayed. My partner would later tell me that even though he's not overly religious, he prayed as well. It seemed to bring her comfort. Something that I wasn't able to do. Something that Blue Eyes and the bystander weren't able to do with words.
I watched as they wheeled her husband into the ER surrounded by the best possible care that he could get in the area. His color was remarkable considering the fact that the one doing compressions was riding the stretcher. Good compressions… Maybe he had a chance…
Once her husband was safely inside of the ER I stood her up, slipped my arm under hers and walked her into the patient entrance. The bystander that had joined us insisted that she stay with her, and when I left them, they were on their knees yet again praying, holding on to each other. Two complete strangers.
I found myself outside once again, next to my partner in crime. This time he had his arm around my shoulders.
"You okay?"
"I'm okay. Are you okay?"
We sat and talked awhile while the cars sped past us on that busy street. We sat and just tried to enjoy the sun. Sometimes that's all you can do when you do this job. Even given what had just happened. As we turned to head back to the truck (you can only hide from dispatch for so long), we ran right back into the wife of the patient and the bystander.
The wife… she wasn't crying. She wasn't smiling, but she wasn't crying. The bystander, bless her heart had a mile wide smile. I have no idea why she was at the ER that day, but whoever you are, THANK YOU for taking care of this woman.
Maybe there's hope… I'm almost afraid to ask this but…
"How is he?" Blue Eyes and I asked almost simultaneously.
She managed a smile. "They told me that they got a pulse back right about the time he was getting into the ER!"
ROSC. Within minutes of an arrest. A witnessed arrest with prompt EFFECTIVE CPR and early defibrillation, in the ambulance bay of a top notch hospital.
I guess if it's going to happen to someone, this is how it should happen.

India announced the successful test launch of a new nuclear-capable missile that would give it the ability to strike the major Chinese cities of Beijing and Shanghai for the first time. Msnbc.com's Dara Brown reports.
Updated at 3:45 a.m. ET: India test-fired a nuclear-capable, long-range missile capable of reaching deep inside China and Europe Thursday, television stations showed, putting the emerging Asian power into an elite club of nations with intercontinental nuclear defense capabilities.
A scientist at the launch site said the launch was successful, minutes after television images showed the rocket blasting through clouds from an island off India's east coast.
Footage showed the rocket, with a range of more than 3,100 miles, blasting through clouds from an island off India's east coast. The defense minister said the test was "immaculate."
"Today's launch represents another milestone in our quest for our security, preparedness and to explore the frontiers of science," Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said in a congratulatory message to the scientists who developed the rocket.
The Agni-V missile is expected to become fully operational as early as 2014 after several more tests, The Times of India reported. It has a range of more than 3,100 miles, according to a BBC report.
Named after Hindu god of fire
The LA Times reported that the 50-ton, 55-foot three-stage rocket is named after the Hindu god of fire. However, it said the missile had been dubbed the "China killer" by the Indian press.
The launch, which was flagged well in advance, has attracted none of the criticism from the West faced by hermit state North Korea for a failed bid to send up a similar rocket last week.
But China noted the launch with disapproval.
"The West chooses to overlook India's disregard of nuclear and missile control treaties,'' China's Global Times newspaper said in an editorial published before the launch, which was delayed a day due to bad weather at the test site.
RNGS / Reuters
"India should not overestimate its strength,'' said the paper, which is owned by the Chinese Communist Party's main mouthpiece the People's Daily.
Fast emerging as a world economic power, India is keen to play a larger role on the global stage and has long angled for a permanent seat on the Security Council. In recent years it has emerged as the world's top arms importer as it upgrades equipment for a large but outdated military.
"It is one of the ways of signaling India's arrival on the global stage, that India deserves to be sitting at the high table," Harsh Pant, a defense expert at King's College, London, said, describing the launch as a "confidence boost."
NATO said on Wednesday it did not consider India a threat. The U.S. State Department said India's non-proliferation record was "solid,'' while urging restraint.
Reuters contributed to this report.

Between the Sheets: 7 Ways to Make Your Bedroom More Romantic
I am not really all that great at the whole interior design thing. My house is more decorated and functional for having three (soon to be four) children roaming and living in the house. I don't want to have to worry about them spilling water on the couches or breaking something I saved forever to be able to afford, nor do I want them to worry about always having to be careful. It's their house too, after all. Once place that rule doesn't hold true is the master bedroom (most of the time). While we are forgoing that romantic space for a couple of years in light of a newborn coming into our life, I have hopes that once he's older, we can bring back the romantic oasis of our bedroom. It's amazing how a few quick fixes can take your bedroom from just another room into the house to being a true force in keeping the calm and romance alive in your relationship. Click through for 7 ways to make your bedroom more romantic! -By Devan McGuinness

After waiting 42 minutes, yes I timed the waitress, for a drink, we went to the bar ourselves. We made an honest complaint to the MOD only to have the angry waitress walk up to our table and throw the bill down. He obviously reported the private discussion we had with him within 1 or 2 minutes after the fact. She was furious. Behind her was the said Manager on Duty who sneered, and I quote, "Why don't you just pay your bill and leave if you're unhappy with the service here." It was by far and large the worst customer service experience I have ever had. There is absolutely no way I would be able to refer this establishment for their sheer lack of professional management. If you dislike the service here, keep your mouth shut or the manager will ask you to leave.
great ribs and fun place – Love this place and I've been going here for years. Both with family and with friends to karaoke. This place is fun!
Oh and they're one of the few places with shuffleboard!
I've never had a bad problem here and it is a great safe place. The incident by the soxfanphil below makes me believe they've left out key information. At 1:40am? They were probably asked to put their drinks down and didn't.
They have over 40 TV's and will put on just about anything, sportswise. They've had sports bloopers shows, lacrosse, hockey, olympics, even MotoGP for us motorcycle fans!
The food is top notch and the new GM and weekend night manager are really cool. Go get a plate of ribs and sit on their patio with a Dos XX or Fat tire, you will love it
I will not go back unless a bouncer is fired – I used to love Spectators, and was there a lot for games and karaoke. I was there on Saturday, April 10, 2010 and witnessed something which will keep me from returning unless a certain bouncer is fired. First, at 1:40am, he ripped a drink out of the hand of a patron, spilling it all over myself. This happened immediately after he told the patron that he could finish his drink. Then, when approached by another patron about the incident, he immediately got defensive. I did not mind this- that is his job. Instead of escorting the patron out of the bar, though, he grabbed him BY THE THROAT and threw punches at him. The patron whose drink was ripped from his hand went over to break up the situation, accompanied by his girlfriend. The bouncer turned towards them, grabbed the girlfriend, pushed her out of the way, and started throwing punches at the male patron. It was my understanding that bouncers were supposed to prevent fights- not start them.
We were at Spectators with a group of about 25 people for karaoke. I personally know many other semi-regulars of Spectators. None of us will be back unless this bouncer is fired. If you do go, be cautious. I suggest staying away.
good joint for football – Service is great, food is good, and you will have your team playing in pretty much any of the rooms. I highly recommend this place. It is LOUD, but I consider this a plus. It's great for football fans who like to show their true colors.
Classic rock and classic rock – We watched a channel the other day on MLB direct tv and enjoyed ourselves at sidelines. When we returned 3 days later to watch the same channel, they said they didn't have the channel... the person we asked just said they don't have it without even trying to find it. There were about 10 or so TV's in the place and no one was by the one we wanted to watch! So maybe they don't care, but its disappointing to have to find another bar to watch games.
Sports Bar – This was a nice place to watch sports and grab a bite to eat. The combination plate (ribs & shrimp) was definetely the highlight of the evening. Make sure when you arrive that you take notice of the two additional rooms that flank to the left and right, they offer additional seating and big screen T.V's
Are you sports crazy? Do you yell at televisions? You're never alone at this big-screen, suds-sipping sports heaven. – The Scene
Forty televisions (seven big screens) broadcast every sport imaginable, catering to the armchair quarterback in us all. No one to watch Monday night football with? There are always plenty of friendly faces who will yell at the screen right along with you. The interactive trivia system puts your sports IQ to the challenge. Don't like sports? Caution: Do not mention it out loud, but quietly move to the pool tables, video games or dart boards.
The Draw
From Coors and Bass Ale to hard cider and Sam Adams, seven beers on tap and a selection of bottled suds are the perfect accompaniment to any game. Get the baby back ribs. They're perfect with a cold beer, and this sports haven is known for them. Not a meat eater? Try the deep-fried veggies.
The Ribs! – The food is excellent. Service could be a little better. We have been going there for 12 years and have never had a bad meal.

The bat seems to perform as the previous verison, took more time to break in from the previous verison. The paint job is great, matte finish doesn't seem the flake off like previous version.
All in All is a great bat and performs better than the competion for sure. The new grip is awesome. Verdict is still out if it gives more distance yet.
Baseball Bat Sizing Chart
Bat sizing charts:
Softball Bat Sizing
To find the correct bat length for your softball-playing daughter, have her stand straight up with her arms to the side. Place a ruler to her side with the start of the ruler (the "0" mark) on the ground. Read the measurement at the end of her wrist, just where the hand meets the forearm. As a general rule, this measurement indicates the perfect bat length for her.
Another sizing method for Baseball and Softball
Another great means for determining bat size is what we'll call the wingspan method. Have your son or daughter stand up tall with their arms straight out (arms should be parallel to the ground as if they were trying to mimic an airplane). Measure from the very center of their chest out to the tip of their fingers. That measurement will give you the ideal bat length.
It's always best to try to size using a variety of methods to come up with their ideal. For youth which are still growing, we recommend that you go with the longest length obtained through the various sizing methods. We often use the break of the wrist method (described in the softball bat sizing above) along with this method and use the longer of the two.

ORU looks to rebound against UIW on Tuesday
TULSA, Okla. – The Oral Roberts University men's soccer team looks to get back on track Tuesday evening as they host Division I newcomer Incarnate Word at 7 p.m. at the Case Soccer Complex.
It will be a quick turnaround for ORU (4-6-2, 2-1-0), who is fresh off a double-overtime loss at Eastern Illinois, 2-1. Alex White scored midway through the first half to give the Golden Eagles a 1-0 lead. However, the Panthers answered in the 65th minute to tie the match and scored the golden goal with 48 seconds remaining in the second overtime.
White's goal was his second of the season, just behind Edgardo Mira who leads the squad with three goals.
Playing all but two home matches on the road this season, UIW has weathered the storm by posting a 4-5 record. Last Tuesday, the Cardinals took on Trinity in their first home game and dropped a 2-1 decision with junior Victory Pinal scoring the lone UIW goal.
Pinal and junior midfielder Alex De La Garza are tied for second on the team with three goals, while senior Vincent Bailey has five goals. Jarred Kahan has started all nine Cardinal matches between the posts and has recorded 33 saves and one shutout.
The two programs last met at a neutral site back in 1991 with the Cardinals getting the best of the Golden Eagles, 6-0.
Live stats and free video are available for the match on ORUGoldenEagles.com.

Q: We have a unit that has been in foreclosure for about 24 months. The owner moved out a year and a half ago. No one has paid assessments on this unit since the owner left. The bank has yet to proceed with a foreclosure sale. I know that the association may ultimately receive up to six months of assessments, but that is not nearly sufficient to cover the amount of unpaid assessments on this unit.
The bank has not proceeded with a foreclosure sale in which the bank would become responsible for assessments. Are banks sitting on condominiums in foreclosure to avoid having to pay assessments while they wait for the housing market to improve? Owners are paying assessments to maintain the building during the foreclosure. What can we do to expedite the foreclosure sale so that assessments will be paid on this unit?
A: Your letter clearly illustrates the hardship experienced by condominium associations in the current foreclosure environment. Foreclosure sales are not proceeding at a pace to give associations financial relief. Regardless of whether the delay is due to the volume of cases in a lender's real estate portfolio, the foreclosure mediation process or deliberate delay, many associations experience substantial cash flow shortages from units in pending foreclosure cases.
- Bio | E-mail | Recent columns
Unit owners are paying assessments to maintain the common elements and pay insurance to protect foreclosed units. Under current law, the foreclosing lender controls the date of the sale. Unless the association proceeds to foreclose its lien, the board of directors cannot expedite the sale. Even in that case, the mortgage holder will receive the first proceeds of a sale.
Q: I am a first-time condominium owner in a 20-unit professionally managed building. The board has decided to rent a portion of the roof to a cellphone company for a transmission tower without approval of the owners. The manager asserts that the board has the right to do this, since it is only a cosmetic change and benefits everyone. I believe that this tower is a new structure to the building which, under our declaration, is subject to a two-thirds vote of the ownership because the cost will exceed $5,000. Who is correct?
A: The manager is correct, but for the wrong reason. A condominium board may lease or grant a license to a third party to use portions of the common elements. Telecommunications leases in condominium buildings are very common and provide significant income to associations.
Under Section 18.4(a) of the Condominium Act, the owner approval provision you cite applies to structural alterations or additions to the property of a permanent nature. The board has granted a temporary use of the roof to the cellphone company in exchange for rent. The spending limitation provision of your declaration does not apply to this transaction.
Q: A resident was recently appointed to the board of our condominium association. Our bylaws state that you need to be an owner to be on the board. In this case, the new board member's spouse purchased the unit before they were married. The title is in the spouse's name. However, both of their names appear to be on the county tax records for the unit.
Does being married to a title owner and living on the same premises with both names on the tax assessor's report entitle this spouse to be on the board?
A: A unit owner must be a titleholder to serve on the board. In this case, the current board should ask the new member to produce a copy of the deed conveying a title interest in the unit.
The spouse of an owner cannot serve on the board unless that person has a legal interest in the unit. In this case, the parties may have recorded a deed to warrant a change on the assessor's records.

how about if you guys make it possible to make the settings for your apps in the preferences.app ?
like the ipod, the phone, safari, etc.
after all, all you need to do is add one .plist file to the preferences.app folder and add one key to the general.plist

Reports suggest that eating quickly is one of the main reasons for the expanding waistlines in men. As per another study, men tend to eat faster than women, eating approximately 30 more calories in a minute.
A research by the University of Rhode Island states that there is a direct connection between eating faster and emotional turmoil. A university's professor, Dr. Kathleen Melanson, said that an emotional person pays less attention to what he or she is eating. People often desire more food in such scenarios, which leads to overeating.

Suranne Jones, Zaraah Abrahams and More Set to Star in West End's BEAUTIFUL THING - Full Cast Announced!
The producers of the brand new 20th anniversary production of Jonathan Harvey's classic play, Beautiful Thing, are thrilled to announced full casting for the show, which will open at the Arts Theatre in the West End from 13 April - 25 May, followed by a short UK tour visiting Liverpool, Leeds and Brighton. Directed by Nikolai Foster, and designed by Colin Richmond, the production will star Suranne Jones as 'Sandra', Zaraah Abrahams as 'Leah', Oliver Farnworth as 'Tony and introducing Jake Davies as 'Jamie' and Danny-Boy Hatchard, making his professional debut as 'Ste'. Nancy Sullivan and Luke Baker will also join the company as understudy covers.
Zaraah Abrahams is best known for playing 'Michaela White' in BBC1's Waterloo Road and for her role as 'Joanne Jackson' in Coronation Street. She was a finalist on Dancing on Ice and subsequently travelled the UK with Torvill and Dean on the Dancing on Ice UK tour. She also appeared alongside SurAnne Jones in Scott and Bailey in 2012.
Oliver Farnworth is best known as series regular 'Will Hackett' in Channel 4's Hollyoaks. His theatre credits include 'Holding the Man' at the Trafalgar Studios and 'Kes' at The Liverpool Playhouse, directed by Nikolai Foster.
Jake Davies recently appeared in the ITV drama 'A Mother's Son' with Hermione Norris and Martin Clunes. He has also played alongside Miranda Hart in BBC1's 'Call the Midwife' and Jack Whitehall in BBC Three's 'Bad Education'.
Danny-Boy Hatchard has just graduated from ArtsEducational, and will be making his professional debut in Beautiful Thing
Suranne Jones will star as Sandra, Jamie's mother. Her recent television includes two series of the very popular Scott & Bailey as Rachel Bailey for ITV1 and the thriller The Secret of Crickley Hall, a three parter for BBC 1. She played Idris the human incarnation of the Tardis in Dr. Who also for the BBC. She has filmed three series of the spoof detective series A Touch of Cloth for Sky 1 with John Hannah. Suranne is also well known for playing the unforgettable Karen McDonald in Coronation Street where she worked closely with Jonathan Harvey. Her stage work includes Top Girls at Chichester Festival Theatre and Trafalgar Studios, A Few Good Men with Jon Barrowman and Rob Lowe at the Theatre Royal Haymarket and Noel Coward's Blithe Spirit at the Manchester Royal Exchange.
Beautiful Thing is a glorious urban love story between two young men set on an inner city housing estate. It tells the story of teenager Jamie's relationship with classmate and neighbour Ste. Together the two boys find comedy, warmth and the music of Mama Cass through their loud-mouthed next door neighbour Leah. The play exquisitely depicts what it is to be sixteen, in the first flush of love, and full of optimism.
Jonathan Harvey wrote Beautiful Thing when he was just 24. It premiered at the Bush Theatre in 1993 and sold out its five-week run before transferring to the Donmar Warehouse, and then the Duke of York's, eventually winning its author an Olivier Award nomination and the John Whiting Award. A screen adaptation of the play was released in 1996 by Channel 4 films, which went on to be a cult hit. Jonathan is a regular writer for Coronation Street and wrote the TV hit series Gimme, Gimme, Gimme, as well as the best-selling 2012 novel All She Wants. His plays include Canary and Corrie!
Nikolai Foster is an Associate Director of the West Yorkshire Playhouse. His work has been seen in most of the UK's leading regional theatres, touring houses and internationally, and recent productions include Flashdance (West End), Hayfever (CFT), Merrily We Roll Along (Clwyd Theatr Cymru), The Diary of Anne Frank (York Theatre Royal & The Touring Consortium), and Annie (WYP, Leeds).

IT'S THE BEST – I love this place....I have been going there for many, many years....I can find things there that no one else has and if they don't have it they will suggest who might. My experience has always been nothing short of great. The staff is so very knowledgeable about whatever problem I may have....something you don't get from the BIG stores. They are always friendly and WILLING to help....gardening, plumbing, painting....from the smallest screw to the biggest repair or purchase. No, I don't and never have worked there but having the same people working there for so many years it feels like family. Thank You Bill for always being in your own store, many customers don't often see the owners of stores they visit, Steve who knows everything about anything....REALLY!!! your great!!!!! & Charlie for helping me out when I have had the biggest plumbing or electrical problems.... Hope you're all there for years to come.
Terrible Customer Service – Don't spend any money for large ticket items at this store. They will not stand behind the products that they sell. The store attempts to shunt the customer off on the vendor and ignore you off when the vendor does not respond.

Led by Senator McCain (R-AZ), the warhawks of the party are circling the dome of freedom in Washington with their usual flare for war, bloodshed and military power. And yet, it was their political idle President Ronald Reagan who was instrumental in tearing down the Berlin Wall, using diplomacy rather than military force.
In a 1987 speech at the Brandenburg Gate, in sight of the Berlin Wall, commemorating the 750th anniversary of Berlin, Reagan called on General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union Mikhail Gorbachev to "Tear down this Wall." Reagan said as Americans, "We welcome change and openness; for we believe that freedom and security go together, that the advance of human liberty can only strengthen the cause of world peace."
Referring to the removal of the wall, Reagan said, "There is one sign the Soviets can make that would be unmistakable, that would advance dramatically the cause of freedom and peace. He challenged the Soviets and said, "If you seek peace, if you seek prosperity for the Soviet Union, tear down this wall."
On November 9, East Germany announced the opening of its gates to the West. The demise of the barrier was the bridge that paved the way for German reunification, Western European security and prosperity.
Maybe Republicans should take Reagan's advice and tear down the wall of political hate for Obama and replace it with the common sense of diplomacy.
In his Berlin Wall speech, Reagan was engaging. He called-out Russian suppression of freedom and its division of Europe. He spoke directly to Russian leaders.
Now, we have Russian President Vladimir Putin speaking directly to President Obama and the American people in his op-ed piece published in the New York Times. Republicans are criticizing the Times for publishing it and Putin for invading the American press. But Reagan said we should welcome openness because we believe freedom and security go together to advance sectarian freedom, world peace and economic prosperity.
Another legendary Republican, President Theodore Roosevelt, had a foreign policy for peace based on an old West African proverb "speak softly, and carry a big stick." Obama is not speaking softly but at least he is using the big stick approach as the fulcrum for diplomacy and the conduit for peace.
Too bad G.W. Bush couldn't have used what he learned in his home economics class at Yale to make use of diplomacy in Iraq before he raised Vice President Dick Cheney's big stick of war on behalf of Halliburton and the rest of the oil cartel. If the cost of the Iraq war was $1 million for every 10 points of Bush's IQ, the war would have only cost American Taxpayers $50 million.
We should all support President Obama's strategy to negotiate openly with Russia. The elimination of Syria's chemical weapons benefits Russia as well as the rest of the Mid East. It could be big step in building a political bridge over the tainted waters of a troubled world.

While I've got your eyes and ears, let me plug the book Larry Nance and I have been laboring over for the past several years.
The Basics of Videojournalism.
This is a hands-on book written by two experienced pros that focuses on what you need to know to tell visual stories. Critical are knowledge of law and ethics. Without those two, you're just another wanna-be with a camera.
Our second section walks you through the parts of the camera, types of mikes, computers, software overview, tripods, lights, and other goodies you need to know about. We don't tell you what to get…but try to give you the knowledge so you can choose wisely.
Third section is the "how to" part of The Basics of Videojournalism. How to use the camera, the tripod, the mike, the lights. How to conduct an interview and do a standup. Some hints for quick and dirty cover-the-story-and-get-it-to-the-audience. Scripting, logging, editing basics. Concluding with a catch-all section on random other stuff every VJ keeps in his or her bag of tricks.
And for you instructors…our Teachers' Supplement is already out and on sale at the JEA Bookstore.
So like us on facebook and visit us at our website. Start up a conversation, ask questions. We'll try to answer them and look forward to your support.

Since 2000, the NAI has brought together industry leaders to establish and enforce standards for the collection and use of data for online behavioral advertising (OBA). Below is a brief timeline outlining our story of success and innovation.
2000: The NAI publishes the NAI Principles, the first set of self-regulatory standards governing OBA and the industry's first opt-out page. The initial Principles, commended by the Federal Trade Commission, were the first to address the online use of non-personally identifiable data for advertising and the first to require consumer-facing notice and a choice mechanism.
2008: The NAI publishes an updated Code of Conduct incorporating new restrictions on the collection and use of sensitive data and data related to children. The 2008 Code also requires an annual compliance report, detailing members' compliance efforts. Pursuant to this requirement, the NAI published reports for 2009, 2010, and 2011.
2009: The NAI launches a consumer education page, providing a centralized location for a variety of informational articles, videos, and other creative content designed to educate users about OBA. To raise awareness of these resources, NAI members have deployed billions of ad banners linking to the NAI's educational page across their networks.
The NAI testified before a joint hearing of the U. S. House of Representatives Committee on Energy and Commerce Subcommittees on Commerce, Trade and Consumer Protection and Communications, Technology and the Internet. The testimony focused on the economic benefits to Web content providers and consumers that result from online behavioral advertising and the steps taken by NAI members to o promote transparency and choice for OBA.
2010: NAI joins the Digital Advertising Alliance, a non-profit organization of leading companies and trade associations including the Association of National Advertisers (ANA), the American Association of Advertising Agencies (4A's), The Direct Marketing Association (DMA), the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB), the American Advertising Federation (AAF) and the NAI. The DAA was formed to administer and promote the Self-Regulatory Principles for online data collection.
NAI members lead industry efforts to develop and implement a standardized icon to provide a visible indication to consumers that an online advertisement may be targeting to their interests. The icon is now served trillions of times annually.
The NAI released the results of a first-of-its-kind study measuring the pricing and effectiveness of behaviorally-targeted (BT) advertising online. Based on proprietary data provided by twelve major advertising networks, the study found that in 2009, behaviorally-targeted advertising secured an average of 2.68 times as much revenue per ad as non-targeted "run of network" advertising.
2011: The NAI requires members to provide additional transparency to consumers regarding the use of health-related data used for OBA purposes. Members are required to post on their websites any interest segments they use for OBA purposes that are based on health-related conditions or treatments.
2012: The NAI issues its third compliance report which demonstrated that overall, NAI member companies continue to meet the obligations of the NAI Code and to adopt best practices even where not required by the Code. The report also revealed:
- Member companies included in the report don't use, or permit others to use, OBA data for purposes other than marketing.
- Reporting companies did not use or seek to use sensitive consumer data as defined by the NAI Code for OBA purposes.
- Evaluated member companies do not collect PII for OBA purposes, and they have policies and protections in place to prevent the inadvertent collection of this data.
- The NAI website witnessed explosive growth in 2011, with 8.5 million unique visits to the site overall and nearly 6 million unique visits to the NAI's opt-out page.
As online advertising continues to grow and diversify and new technologies emerge, the NAI will remain a vigorous advocate for responsible online advertising standards and effective consumer choice mechanisms.
2013: The NAI releases its fourth annual compliance report, which reflects NAI member companies' continued commitment to the principles set forth in the NAI Code. The report also details the NAI's planned initiatives for 2013, including the development of a revised NAI Code and of principles governing the collection and use of data on mobile devices.
On March 1, the NAI releases for public comment a draft code of conduct for public comment. The draft code would require NAI member companies to provide notice in and around the targeted ads they serve, explicitly limit the uses NAI members may make of data collected for interest-based advertising and ad delivery and reporting purposes, and provide new, comprehensive education and guidance for member companies on how to meet the obligations of the code.
On May 16, the NAI released the final 2013 Code of Conduct, which imposes rigorous education, notice, transparency, choice, and data security requirements on NAI member companies. The final Code also reflects the expanded scope of the third-party ecosystem, in addition to offering flexibility in order to accommodate existing and emerging business models and practices. The updated Code will formally be enforced starting in 2014.
On May 21, the NAI held its inaugural Member Summit at the Glass Houses at the Chelsea Arts Tower in New York City. The Summit themed "Third Parties and the Future of the Internet" featured keynote speaker Maureen Ohlhausen, Commissioner of the Federal Trade Commission, along with representatives from NAI member companies, including a CEO panel. The panel topics included hot-button issues such as Do-Not-Track, the future of cookies and new technologies.
On July 24, 2013 the NAI released the final Mobile Application Code, which expands the organization's self-regulatory program to cover data collected across mobile applications.

Yet flagrant grief incensed me. Hence

Fessing high crimes that spurn defense.

Silent condemnation thundered.

Remember the 3F rule... you're better off leasing.
Keep an eye on your wife. Mine was cutting her hair recently and made a huge pile of hair in the bathroom sink. I asked if she was planning on putting that hair down the drain. She said, "no, of course not. The drain is closed."
So I just said to make sure it goes in the trash. Guess what? It went down the toilet instead.
Women don't seem to understand that there are pipes underneath the fixtures. This was a huge pile of hair. No doubt a clog coming soon.
Remember the 3F rule... you're better off leasing.
While I would agree that massive amounts of hair don't belong in the drain, at least the toilet has a much larger area. I don't think a clog is a certainty, but I'd "discourage" the practice of flushing large amounts anything such as hair.
"Women don't seem to understand that there are pipes underneath the fixtures" Is this the new millennium???
If you must use the bathroom sink area to cut your hair, trim your beard or whatever, close the drain and cover the whole sink with lightly dampened paper towels. Any hair that falls there sticks to the paper towels and wipes up easily. Then throw it away. We throw the hair outside in the garden for the birds. So, if you ever see a nest that looks like a wig...
